Abstract

Resumen: En este artículo se presenta la evolución d el mercado laboral colombiano, tanto en el largo como en el corto plazo, así como una evaluación de los impactos de la reforma laboral de 2002 sobre la generación y calidad del empleo. Las estimaciones muestran que el empleo en las siete áreas metropolitanas más importantes hubiese sido, en promedio para el período 2003(1) a 2004(2), 3,4% más bajo de no haberse aprobado la reforma. Ésta ha contribuido también a otros impactos favorables: un incremento innegable en la calidad del empleo en las grandes ciudades; la estabilidad del empleo asalariado ha comenzado a elevarse en las empresas demás de 10 trabajadores, pero los efectos definitivos sólo se verán en el largo plazo, y algunas de las ocupaciones más dinámicas subieron ligeramente la jornada semanal, muchas la redujeron, pero casi todas han visto crecer el salario real por mes y por hora y la cobertura de la seguridad social.
